Earlier this year I shared how I’ve made over $500 with CashCrate. Now I’m back to share how I’ve made over $1000 with CashCrate.
In case you’re wondering, CashCrate is a simple, easy way for broke college students to make some extra cash while putting off studying and homework. Trust me. I joined CashCrate while putting off my thesis, and it definitely succeeded in both making me some extra money and putting off my thesis.
CashCrate is one of the more popular “Get Paid To”, or GPT, sites. You make money by filling out surveys and completing trial offers. While most of the other sites you’ll find about CashCrate make it sound like the most exciting thing in the world, I refuse to lie to you. Filling out surveys and completing trial offers is boring. Even though it’s pretty easy to do, the process can be a little confusing for newcomers.
Luckily, I’ve documented some of my CashCrate experiences and shared them on my site to help you out, because everyone can use some extra cash. In my article on how to make $24 with CashCrate right now, I provide a step-by-step explanation of how I completed three trial offers and earned $24 from CashCrate, and it only took about an hour’s worth of my time.
Since you can only do each trial offer once, you’ll eventually run out offers to complete, but thanks to CashCrate’s generous referral program, you can keep making money. For each person you refer to CashCrate, you’ll receive 20% of your referrals’ earnings, and a $3.00 bonus for each referral who earns at least $10. By telling your friends about CashCrate, you can help them make some extra money too (and earn a few extra dollars for yourself in the process).
In fact, all of the money I’ve made with CashCrate this year has been through referrals and bonuses. Just take a look below.

I am going to give this an honest try this evening after work. I have tried survey programs before and did not get much out of them at all, but I’m interested to see what you are saying! Hope all is well, you must be busy!
That is impressive, especially with the referrals. For me, I have trouble finding friends who are willing to sign up for things like this: ebates, swagbucks, etc. How do you get people to join?
Man, I would think you would be making more, being on the first page of google for “cashcrate”. Oh well, the best of luck to ya!
Cheers

Great post! I love how you accomplished two things while using CashCrate.. 1) making some extra money and 2) putting off your thesis. We’re always trying to find little ways to avoid studying, while also trying to avoid the feeling of guilt for not studying. I love these sites where you can earn money just by filling out some surveys or referring your friends to CashCrate!
You should consider creating a poll for your readers. I find them pretty useful and fun for voting as well!
Your article on this blog is fantastic. Well done! I’m a big fan of your blog and be sure to keep up the great work.
I plan on returning and linking to your site.
Sincerely,
Author
The Alan Haft Blog,
I’d rather spend my time figuring out other ways to make money, but if you’re bored and aren’t looking for a challenge this doesn’t look entirely bad.
I need to check this out. Any way to make a little extra money on the side sounds cool!
Hello, this realy sound good, bt i v had somtin like this jst of recent bt i was told dt has a Nigerian i shld nt signup using Nigeria ip nd dt i’ll need to provide som act lyk graph card etc…Pls is dis through nd how can u help me out?
Congrats on your earnings! Seeing that you have accomplished earning $1000 on Cashcrate, I am confident I am able to do the same. I am documenting my process on my blog so wish me luck! I have earned over $300 so far! Hopefully I will be at $1000 in a few months since I am trying several different ways to get referrals. I guess one important key is to help your referrals get referrals since Cashcrate pays on two levels. This is what I am doing with my referrals. Nevertheless, thanks for sharing your success!
This is probably the first cashcrate review I’ve heard where the author readily agrees that the work involved is boring. Very refreshing to see some honesty out there!
thats a good money you made with that stuff. will give that a try.
Great job, I’d love to see your earnings now. Are you a CashCrate Elite? Or at least close to being one?
So do you actually get the money? I’ve heard this site is spam, but I’m not completely sure. So, is it a spam, or is the money actually sent to you? Please give me a truthful answer; I’m debating whether I’m going to try this or not.
@Skylar, yes of course you will get paid. BrokeGrad has some checks and so do I on my blog (click me name to go there). I’ve made hundreds with CashCrate, and I know that you’ll enjoy it, if you join.
How many other GPT sites are you part of?
How much have you earned now? I know that one of CashCrate’s forum moderators has earned over $18,000 now.
An update on your progress would be nice
Do you ever actually come back to check the blog these days? Lots of up want to know where you’re up to!
He probably got a job; since he’s out of college.
I have tried surveys for money before but it seemed that you always had to be certain demographics to qualify for the best ones. Perhaps it’s worth a try again.
Hi great post sharing all is also very impressive thanks fore great sharing.
hi,
i’m from the philippines and i’m diasppointed that there aren’t a lot of offers available in cash crate for phlippine residents. aside from that it takes too long for me to get my pending earning approved. how could this be?
im now doubting if it’s a lucrative source of income or if it’s not a hoax.
I’m new to all this computer talk.
What is a Website first off?
2) I am trying to think of ways to make extra money as jobs in Ohio are not very good and I’m unable to draw unemployment.
3) I did go to GetRef.com and signed up.
4) If I can make a couple hundred here and there please tell me where to begin.
5) I’ve signed up for several programs but they just want me to sign up for programs I’m already a member of and I don’t like signing up for free trials when they ask for a credit card. I made the mistage of doing it twice and they still took the money out of the account and I ended up having to close that account out completely.
Thanks I appreciate any help you can give me as I’m 55 years old and really depressed at not being able to work and going back to college after 30 years isn’t very pleasant either.

Hi creating case is very nice work but no any person do this work easily all is very difficult thanks for very informative sharing.
honestly I thought most of those sites were scams. I am glad you pointed this one out. Hopefully it’s still around.
Nope, CashCrate is open to anyone. Here are the requirements listed on their site: “You must be atleast 13 years old. Members from the United States and other English speaking countries will have the most offers available to them, but members from other countries are welcome as well.”
OK this is crazy i totally believe you about this check but every time i fill out these surveys they stay in pending. can you help me or even do a little for me please i will do anything if you do some surveys to me. If u agree to do some survays i will give you my email and password to sign in PLZZZ.
Sounds easy enough, i’m gona try it out for sure.
Hi very nice title sharing telling I’ve Made Over $1000 with CashCrate all is very perfect for this post.
@fathers day, would be great if you could go into the detail how you made that $1,000 with cash crate!
Till then,
Jean

This looks like a great and easy way to make some extra cash, thanks for sharing it.

It seems like another online money making way, yet it still requires passion.
